Needs a bit more volume to work for me, but I have significant hearing loss in the ear I can use this on. Mostly it is OK.

Doing a fresh install is very easy, unless you don't already have a LIVE account. Once that is done the install is painless and quick

Best movie - not because it was "Guardians of the galaxy!!" but because it was well made, funny and totally worth seeing on the big screen.

It bugs me the least of the big three
on October 16, 2014
Posted by: Alacrity

Verified Purchase:Yes
Best Buy offers three brands of AV and I have used all three for client machines. This one bugs you the least often once the "trial" has expired. It also seems to bog down the system the least - and I have NOT had this one suddenly lock down network printing for no apparent reason like the others have (I'm looking at YOU Norton, McAfee, WebRoot and Kaspersky)

plenty easy to install and set up
on September 5, 2014
Posted by: Alacrity
Verified Purchase:Yes
Install was easy and exactly as described in the manual. Setup of wireless is a bit tiresome when you have to "type" the pass phrase with the ring, but it's a one-time thing. Software to run it from a smart phone does the same functions as if you are in front of the unit. I've had it for a month and it's working great.

Whats the best photo and video to create a slide show software

If you mean slide show as in "Show these pictures one after the other" the answer is Picasa. www.picasa.com. If you mean slide show as in "One slide at a time containing information and maybe an animation or Picture or Text Effect" just bit the bullet and get powerpoint.
